Distributed Files

File List

The files under ./dist/json/* are generated:

• defaults.json - A JSON object containing only the default strings
• resources.json - A JSON object containing only the community resources
• featureCollection.json - A GeoJSON FeatureCollection containing only the custom Features
• completeFeatureCollection.json - A GeoJSON FeatureCollection of all Features, each with available resources included in a resources property, and all text strings and urls resolved.
• img/* - SVG logos for all the resource types

🧐: "Why use .json instead of .geojson as the file extension for generated GeoJSON files?"
🤓: "So you can require or import them as modules into other JavaScript code if you want."

Each file is available in both regular .json or minified .min.json format.

Metadata

Each JSON file contains a block of metadata like:

"_meta": {
    "version": "5.10.0",

    "url": "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/osmlab/osm-community-index/main/dist/json/resources.json",
    "hash": "38571da825ce9e57b9310167375442d8"
}

• version - the semantic version of project when the file was generated
